I got off on a whim last summer with this fabulous sort of quilt design that I found in Freddy and Gwen Collaborate Again. Freddy did her quilt with red blocks, with scraps strips around each one. I had some scraps of yellow fabric, with chickens, that I was going to toss out. I decided to use them, and I created the Random Chickens quilt. Then, due to unforeseen circumstances that caused me to realize what a fabric hog I was, I decided to do scrappy borders with reds I already had and use the chicken fabrics I got last summer on the back. Oh, I have not taken a photo of the back. I guess I had better do that. Meanwhile, this quilt looks like madness, but is truly wonderful. It has twenty blocks, each with a center of yellow.
This looks good, but to see it in person is a real joy. Let's see the close-up . . .
In this close-up, you can see the wonderful swirls quilted into it by Phyllis Oneal.
Somewhere in my blog, in 2018, (August maybe) there is mention of my Random Chickens quilt. Keep scrolling down, or click on the 2018 section of the "Blog Archive" found on the right-hand side of my blog. It is directly under the photo of Ebony looking out from under my flannel quilt on my bed. Then you can read more details about the quilt.
